Táto séria satirických rozprávok prepisuje klasické príbehy z detskej literatúry s moderným, politicky korektným pohľadom. Autori sa zameriavajú na odstránenie zastaraných stereotypov a predsudkov, ktoré sa objavovali v tradičných rozprávaniach. Každá prepísaná rozprávka ponúka vtipné a podnetné zamyslenie nad spoločenskými normami a minulosťou. Je to skvelá voľba pre čitateľov, ktorí ocenia humor a inovatívny prístup k známym príbehom.
Politically Correct Bedtime Stores, then is the fruit of Garner's labors. We'd like to think that future generations of fairy-tale fans will see this as a worthy attempt to develop meaningful literature that is totally free from bias and purged from the influences of a flawed cultural past.
This is a "topsy-turvy" book of both Politically Correct Bedtime Stories and Once Upon a More Enlightened Time in one volume, an exclusive Quality Paperback Book Club edition. No publishing date is given, copyright dates of 1994 and 1995 for the two books.
A collection of Christmas stories, retold for readers of evolved consciousness, liberated from archaic, sexist, ageist, classist, lookist and other environmentally unsound prejudices.
The Ultimate Storybook
James Finn Garner wowed the world when he wrote Politically Correct Bedtime Stories, which sold nearly 2 million copies, and then followed it up with two books with the same theme, Politically Correct Holiday Stories and Once Upon An Enlightened Time; the three books together sold nearly 3.5 million copies in the U.S. and were translated into 20 languages. Garner's incisive and hilarious books took age-old bedtime and holiday stories and made them into politically correct tales of our day. His original humor, filled with social commentary, is well-known by readers around the country -- most recently in his new book Apocalypse Wow!
